This might work for anyone having the infamous runtime error/ c ++ problem/ dx 11 issue when trying to load saved games.
This applies to anyone using saves with mods activated.
Okay, after messing around with this game for hours I finally figured out why its crashing on loading save games for me. (DX 11 runtime errors)
Now, for whatever reason (I think because of the latest patch), after you verify the integrity of the game cache in steam, the game doesn't fully load until you try running it once. You basically have to fire it up once as vanilla to get the thing fully installed, then you run it once more to activate the mods.
So, if you are reinstalling a mod, and you are having save game problems, do this.
1. Go to my documents/my games/sid meiers civ 5. Delete the old versions of the mod in the mod folder, delete cache folder entirely, delete whats inside the mod user data folder.
2. Verify integrity of game cache in Steam.
3. Start the game up once as vanilla, no mods loaded, quit.
4. Start game again, activate mods, you're good to go.
This took me forever to puzzle out but its working now. Hopefully this helps someone out.
